An Introduction to Coordinated School Health
- Establishing healthy behaviors during childhood is more effective than trying to change unhealthy behaviors during adulthood.
- The health of our children does not depend on major medical breakthroughs, but rather on the everyday practice of good health habits.
- CSH addresses the needs of the whole child by aiming to provide a healthy environment along with a wide range of other activities to provide for the academic success and the development of healthy behaviors that last a lifetime.
